Our Two Step Process

Because men don’t need more steps.

Step 1

Need a task to do together for an extended period of time? Obviously you could get into a TV show…but then you’re not really talking or learning anything about each other. Why not try to build something together, like a small airplane, rocket, model car, or puzzle? These tasks will bring you back to your childhood and also teach your woman a little something about yourself.

Step 2

If your’re building a model car for your date night, or doing something that takes time, you are going to learn each other’s patience for nitty gritty skills. How long can you guys wait while the paint is drying before moving to the next step? Who is trying to cut corners and who is taking the extra time to get every detail correct? Learning how you both respond to trivial and tedious tasks will help you understand each other’s strengths and weaknesses.

This is a great date idea that you can come back to over and over again.
